I am designing a new report using oracle reports builder that comes with 10g. I have many columns to be inserted horizontally. But I couldn't increase the page width of the body section beyond 8.5 inches. But I can see the page width of some existing reports to be more than 16 inches. How do I increase the page width?. I have been googling for an hour but couldn't find anything useful. I have tried tinkering with the settings at,
File->Page Size
Tools->Options->Margin
Edit->Preferences
but no gain.
So any help would be much welcome.
Thanks.
In the Object Navigator window, open up the Layout Model node. Then double-click on the Main Section node to bring up its properties in the Property Palette window. There you will find Width, which defaults to 8.5, and Height, which defaults to 11.
Tony's answer shows how to adjust the width of the report. If you want to adjust the margin, then open up the Layout Model, click on the button "Edit Margin" (visit the tooltips to identify the button), click on the thick black border and then adjust the margin by dragging the small white square.
Regards,
Rob.
In paper layout go to headersection and double click change width height.
Do the same for mainsection and trailer section.

how to fit the birt report table not properly fit into pdf size because it showing only few data
On Format
You are using the web viewer in your example. If you want a PDF, you need to press the arrow next to the viewer button and choose "View Report as PDF".
On Size
Most elements have a Properties tab that lets you select width and height relative to the parent element. If you set this to 100%, it will use the full width/height of the parent. However, if single elements have a minimum absolute width - like having lots of columns - the 100% may be forced to be ignored. Then you have to change the single elements first.
On Orientation
You might have a fixed set of columns, but it still does not fit the report result. Changing the orientation to landscape can help here - this is especially useful for wide tables. Orientation can be changed in the Master Page tab under Properties -> General -> Orientation.
I find on Win7, when Align Icons to Grid is enabled, my desktop icons have a left margin of 13 and a top margin of 2. Are there any system metric or parameters that report that? Or even via IFolderView2 or anything else?
TIA!!
I would imagine you want SPI_GETICONMETRICS because MSDN says that SM_CXICONSPACING/SPI_ICONHORIZONTALSPACING is the grid size.
I am using Tableau for data visualization and generating lists that can be exported to Excel.
However, when the amount of columns get too big, I cannot see all my columns in the view (They are there though). The problem is that there doesn't seem to be a horizontal scrollbar. I can scroll vertically through my rows, but I haven't found a way to do this horizontally to look through my columns, the same way you would do at the data source tab.
If anyone could help me to figure out how to achieve this that would be awesome! I am using Tableau Desktop version 2018.3 on a Mac.
Edit: The problem also seems to be on Windows and is not related to the maximum amount of columns or the view mode.
Example image of the described problem
You are not getting scrollbar because you are viewing it on a worksheet. Try putting it on the dashboard and set dashboard size to fixed and increase width to accommodate all columns.
now you will get horizontal scrollbar for sure
thanks
Besides updating the horizontal row/column label limit #Bernardo mentioned here:
You'll need to make sure you've have selected "Standard" from the display option list at the top of the screen. That options prevent Tableau from fitting everything into the height, width or view of your current display.
Tableau shows a horizontal scroll bar for measures, but not for dimensions. When only dimensions are included on either the Columns or Rows shelf, the lower horizontal scroll bar will not display. Dimensions are treated as headers for measure aggregations and do not generate a horizontal scroll bar when they exceed the width of the view.
To change the Table Layout and increase the number of columns and rows in your table, go to:
Analysis > Table Layout > Advanced
Set each of the Maximum values to 16, which is the limit allowed.
I have a couple of interactive grids on my page and one of them is overflowing the region. I have tried resizing columns but no matter what I do, the grid bounces right back - overflowing the region. It almost seems as if there is a minimum width property set somewhere but I cannot figure it out.
Under Advanced settings for the interactive grid there is a column that says custom attributes. This field allows you to type in CSS that can override the default CSS. My recommendation would be to play with this column with commands such as
style="width: 90%;"
This would reduce the maximum width the interactive grid will take up (from 100% of screen to 90% of screen).
Additionally when looking at the page you can hit F12 to open a web inspect that could help show more details about the CSS of the grid. If this doesn't help could you provide a screenshot or demo so we can further assist.
I wanted to draw a rectangle with rounded corners in SSRS. But, after lot of research i got to know that currently there is no property for that. So, i am trying to use an image of a rectangle with rounded corners and on top of that trying to align the table and other controls within the image. But, when i am previewing it or exporting it to a PDF file, first the image is getting displayed, then below that all other controls comes. Am i doing anything wrong. Please let me know.
Why don't you try to enclose your image rectangle and other controls etc. within an SSRS Rectangle with BorderStyle = None...
Try following:
Create an image (the rectangle with rounded corners) in your favourite image drawing program. I did mine in Microsoft Paint
and save it as JPEG.
In SSRS report design, in Report Data pane, right click on Images >> Add Image and point to the image that you created in Step 1. (Untitled, in my case see the fig. below)
In SSRS report design, add a Rectangle from the Toolbox to the design surface and in the Properties Pane:
a) look for the BackgroundImage property Click its + sign. then
b) Enter values for Source as Embedded, BackgroundRepeat as Clip and the Value property , when you click the dropdown for its values, should show you the name of the image that you embedded in Step-2, select this name
Resize your rectangle to fit the shape and add your items to this rectangle.
EDIT:
Regarding the question in the Comment, I don't think that the size of the image rectangle can be increased dynamically. If that's the case then you may need to find some other work-around
